secondly there was considerable discussion recently about the potential for america and/or nato playing a role in terms of the final resolution of the israeli-palestinian conflict and then third for many years there has been discussion of the potential american lead role, multinational role at the golan heights so one can imagine in an era of peace in a lot more than some parties would like to see america play world precisely at a time when as you say horridly tea implied by the absence of reference, the stamina to take on these initial roles certainly may not be there. the other point i wanted to make is very interesting jim, your focus on strategic communications in their reference to the administration a mullen's roland "the daily show" because the article that, to which mike made reference that admiral bollon road about strategic communications isn't that the powerful critique of how strategic communications have come to dominate axe of policy. i will quote from it just for a moment. and the strategic andification-- this is admiral mullen's article, i noticed a term of reference is

so if i'm sitting out there right now, america should ask themselves a question. if you're an african-american with a black-sounds name, you have a 50% chance -- less chance of getting a call-back for a job if you had a mainstream sounding name. same qualifications and same resume and different names. why do we do that in america? that should be the lesson. i don't believe we should just move on. i believe we should learn from this, this is a teachable moment and go deep inside ourselves but don't just jump off to the next thing and never have a true, honest discussion so we can be better about ourselves. >> jeff johnson, is that a conversation the president has to lead? at some point let's move on, but hang on let's talk more about race and more in depth? >> i think the president has enough on his plate. i don't want him taking anything off of his plate to make race the discussion. i don't think, however, he should run from it. i think that perhaps he can do an alley-oop to somebody else that can lead that discussion. no, i don't think president obama should be l

the value of america's houses and savings would have fallen either further. people would have rushed to take their money out of banks. it would have brought about utter collapse. i don't know a better way to say it than that. if people wonder if that was true, all they have to do is look back at what happened in the fall of 2008. you saw the value of american savings fall by almost 40%. trillions of dollars in lost wealth and millions left their homes. thousands and thousands of businesses had to close. that's what happens when you let a crisis get out of control. government should never let that happen. if they don't act and this is important for people to understand. people think it's unfair for the government to act to rescue a financial system. you cannot help an economy recover and create jobs. you can't preserve the value of people's savings without a functioning financial system. >> another moment when we requested the hearing that i was concerned about is the counter parties. they are looking into the whole issue. there have been comments that the cou
